   I was wondering how long it would take the Net’s leading psalmist to the culinary virtues of bacon to find that Jim Gaffigan clip….

   I laughed until I stopped.

   The only thing wrong with that clip was that there was like a minute or so before the bacon jokes started, thus depriving us of one more minute of bacon jokes.

   I really admire that Jim Gaffigan is able to take one subject and then create 2 dozen legitimately good jokes about it. Another favorite is his Hot Pockets routine – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J9c9lAfXQHs

   <ASIDE>I don’t like this at all. This was supposed to be political site. I’d have stayed home if I knew he was going to be doing bacon jokes.</ASIDE>

   He’s right. Bacon has to be one of the most expensive foods served at restaurants. You only get about an ounce and a half with your breakfast and a side order get’s you another three strips for $5. It’s like they’re taunting you. I makes you want to scream, “What the fuck!”, throw the table over, stick your fork in the waitress’s eye, and toss a couple chairs over the counter.

   When I make breakfast, I have half a pound of thick-sliced bacon to go with a half dozen eggs. About the only restaurant I’ll eat breakfast at anymore is Denny’s where menu item number 12 is actually a 16-ounce serving of intravenous cholesterol.

    Karma Wilson, he is doing a Gaffigan imitation.

    To those who didn’t get it, I was doing an homage to Gaffigan’s long running gag of imitating an audience member commenting negatively upon his routine.

    And for future reference, if Radley should ever have cause to put a Kevin Meanie clip on his blog, the comment I leave on that post will not actually be attempting to find out what is wrong with him or seriously suggesting he is in any way like a crazy person.

    Oh…I didn’t get it. lol And I’m a huge Gaffigan fan. Excuse me while I pull my own head out of my ass. :)

    Sex and Bacon: Why I Love Things That Are Very, Very Bad for Me by Sarah Katherine Lewis includes a vivid essay about cooking and eating 4 pounds of bacon in order to be sure she’s really gotten as much as she wants.
